In most areas of Nevada and California, potential transpiration and evaporation is in excess of precipitation, which causes a net moisture deficit

Too Little Water Causes – Dry climate – Drought - a period in which precipitation is much lower and evaporation is much higher – Desiccation - drying of soil because of such activities as deforestation and overgrazing – Water stress - low per capita availability of water caused by overpopulation
